Description

When carrying two weapons if you drop the one in your hands it disappears. It briefly appears again if you put something in your hands and remove it, however, you can only inspect the weapon, not pick it up, and it quickly vanishes again.

Tried different servers and it did it with all second carry weapons. The ones I tried were the MP-133; Repeater; and a Mosin.

I also experienced this. Steps to reproduce:

  1. Pick up a secondary weapon.
  2. Red X to drop it - it quickly disappears but shows up at the bottom of Inventory as Inspect only.
  3. Drag it from Inventory into the hands slot - When you Red X it drops as Inspect only.
  4. Drag another item into the hands slot (I used a Kitchen Knife) - the weapon disappears again and is back in Inventory as Inspect only.
  5. Drag the weapon into the hands slot again - the weapon appears in the Vicinity and in the hands slot. You are now unable to Red X to drop it.
  6. Drag another item into the hands slot (I used a Kitchen Knife) - the weapon appears in the Vicinity and the Take option is back again.

Note: For step 5 above, you can also drag the weapon up and out of the Vicinity UI window, as if to move it - now the weapon also has the "Take" option.

Having this problem too. Lost 4 weapons now. I think it has something to do with the item still being at the place where you picked it up originally and you only ever had a phantom one on your body. Last time it happened to me I had a bow. It functioned as a bow but then glitched out with similar steps described by Neojeeoh above. When it finally disappeared, I managed to find it where I had dropped it previously to chop some trees down. It disappeared again later. I am very experienced at the phantom weapon pickup after eating (trained myself to always pick it up again) and its not the same.
